 McDonald's arches. Tried to think of a clever title, but couldn't come up with one.

Taken the same day, just down the road, as my Big Chicken shot. The sky was unhelpful. Just played with levels, added a smidge of yellow saturation, and half a smidge of contrast.

I like the idea. Yellow against its natural opposite blue.
But:
the picture is 'muddy' ( the colors are muddy)
What's lacking is the color correction and contrast adjustment, which I think is allowed in 'Basic Editing' right?

Nice perspective and use of negative space. But I can't figure out what those arches are. Is it a roller coaster of some sort? Oh well, nice shot though. Hmmm, that's funny, suddenly I feel hungry for hamburgers.

Styx fan? (Kilroy)

Good use of negative space. Try using Neat Image to clean up the grainy appearance of the sky.

This is an interesting idea, but the excess negative space works doesn't seem to work well for me in this challenge.

noisy sky - almost like a patterned backdrop. So fat this is the 3rd McD shot. I almost took one myself. The yellow is a bit dull, hazy. From this angle, I just WANT to see a bag of fries in mid air....

was how I remembered kilroy in his several appearances in my neighborhood. The sky is a little noisy. Have you downloaded neatimage? The free version will take the noise out of the sky. A 5.
